#561 - Chapter 561: Ticket to the Political Game
“Xue… Jingsong?”
Hearing Wu Wei utter this name, Prince Shi Renjun frowned.
He was very familiar with this name.
Sure enough, with Wu Wei only giving a name, Prince Shi Renjun quickly stated some non-critical information that everyone knew.
“That guy who is about to become a legendary lord?”
“The one affiliated with the Gold and Silver Mountain Alliance (the alliance of Xue Qingtian and Ove, not a family force)?”
“Xue Qingtian’s uncle?”
“Yes.”
Wu Wei nodded.
“It’s him!”
“I will kill him after a period of time, and then take his head.”
“Then, I will use this to prove my strength.”
The target Wu Wei gave was not random.
The reason he chose Xue Jingtian as his target was that Xue Qingtian had given Wu Wei a commission more than twenty days ago.
The content of this commission was very “simple”.
Wu Wei needed to go all out to eliminate Xue Jingsong, destroy his plan to become a legendary lord, and at the same time, for every plane Wu Wei destroyed belonging to Xue Jingsong, Wu Wei would receive an additional two billion resource points.
(PS: Chapters 460-461.)
In other words, Wu Wei planned to use the commission given to him by Xue Qingtian and his daughter to complete it and use it to demonstrate his strength to Prince Shi Renjun.
“Hehe, I didn’t expect you to be quite humorous.”
“Why?”
“Because I don’t think you have the strength to defeat Xue Jingsong.”
Shi Renjun looked at Wu Wei in front of him and said in a very disdainful tone.
“I have seen that guy, his strength is much stronger than yours.”
“Then have you seen my true strength?”
Wu Wei continued to ask.
“I haven’t, but that’s not important.”
The prince of the empire was still so arrogant, but his arrogance was justified.
“Do you know why?”
“Because I have witnessed Xue Jingsong’s strength!”
“Although he has not officially become a legendary lord and possesses the abilities of a legendary lord, his current strength is already stronger than many legendary lords.”
“Whether it’s his army or his territory construction, it’s all like that.”
Finally, Prince Shi Renjun added another sentence.
“And he is very rich!”
“Wu Wei, I know that you have obtained an additional 20 billion resource points from the Liu and Wang families through the information I previously provided.”
“However, your little 20 billion is not enough to compete with him.”
“Money is very important in war, but sometimes, it is not that important.”
“But even so, Wu Wei, the total amount of your wealth is still vastly different from the other party’s wealth.”
“No, it’s not accurate to use the words ‘vastly different’ to describe the gap between you and the other party.”
“To be precise, the comparison of your strength to the other party should be one in the sky and one on the ground.”
“Well, I know.”
“You know? Then you still dare to say that?”
At this time, Prince Shi Renjun only found Wu Wei a little funny.
Although he could understand Wu Wei’s urgent need to prove his strength, the problem was that he had chosen the wrong opponent.
“Because you just need to believe in me…”
Wu Wei looked at the prince in front of him and said with a smile.
“If I can do it, then I think you should recognize my strength.”
“But if I can’t do it, then I will definitely die on the road of conquest.”
“What do you think?”
Prince Shi Renjun closed his eyes and said nothing.
After a full few minutes, the prince reopened his eyes.
“Okay!”
“Then let me see your skills.”
“If you can really do this, then I will admit that you have successfully obtained the [ticket] to participate in this political game.”
“But if you can’t do it, I believe you should also be prepared…”
After speaking, Shi Renjun clapped his hands.
The butler who brought Wu Wei in earlier entered the room.
“See him off…”
Prince Shi Renjun waved his hand and said.

“Phew…”
“Finally fooled him.”
After returning to the Endless Abyss, which was his territory, Wu Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he didn’t dare to relax too much.
Because he still had many things to do.
To be precise, there were more and more things he had to do as a lord of the abyss…
“Hey, hey, how is the situation on your side?”
As soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, Wu Wei immediately turned on the communicator and asked Gu Yiyun, who was exploring inside the [Beast Ancestor’s Back Garden] world, trying to capture the beastman Long Ge’er.
However, Gu Yiyun gave Wu Wei bad news.
That was: “Not good.”
“There are too many secrets inside that mist.”
“In just less than two days, all the expedition teams I sent out were wiped out.”
“Moreover, I found that the strength of the Iron Rain Tribe in this mist is getting a huge boost.”
“If you don’t send reinforcements, I estimate that I will need nearly a week to get close to the core area of the mist.”
Although Wu Wei didn’t know why Long Ge’er was so comfortable in this mist.
But considering the great losses the other party had caused him, Wu Wei couldn’t give up the pursuit.
So, Wu Wei didn’t hesitate much and gave Gu Yiyun the order to continue exploring.
As for reinforcements?
Sorry.
Although Wu Wei’s current army is increasing exponentially with the blessing of 20 billion resource points.
But Wu Wei didn’t have any intention of sending out any troops.
Because he was about to start a new deathmatch, so Gu Yiyun was destined not to get Wu Wei’s reinforcements.
So, after Gu Yiyun gave Wu Wei bad news, Wu Wei hung up the communication and then contacted the fallen angel Liz.
“Liz, how is the situation on your side?”
“Have you thought of a way to get close to that pyramid?”
“Or rather, have you completed the task I gave you, to find a way to manufacture those special metals in the Land of Godfall?”
Faced with Wu Wei’s question, Liz, who was in the Land of Godfall, also gave a negative answer.
“Sorry, Lord, I still haven’t thought of a way to solve this puzzle.”
“However, I have arranged and implemented several ideas. Give me another week, and I think I should be able to crack it.”
“And most importantly, my inspiration tells me that this pyramid with scales is the source of all these mysteries.”
“So I think I need time?”
“A week?”
Hearing Liz’s answer, Wu Wei couldn’t help but frown.
A week… was really too long.
“Forget it, Liz, you should return first.”
“I have a new mission for you…”
